Ayurveda-based treatments are getting popular in most of the top spas across the globe. Now another traditional Indian system 'vastu' - which believes positive energy emanates from how all things material are arranged - is also taking root at these health and healing resorts.

It is a matter of time before spas are recognized as an industry devoted to the health and wellness and some recent visits to them clearly indicate how India- and Asia-inspired spas are much sought after, giving visitors some unforgettable experiences for the mind, body and soul.

These rejuvenating visits can be had at some unexpected places like Naantali Spa Hotel in Finland, the Mandara Spa in the Maldives, or some emerging hot destinations like Anantara in Central Thailand.
You even have a feng shui-certified Avalon Hotel in Gothenberg, Sweden.

One spa known for its Asian systems is Anantara Hua Hin Resort and Spa, situated two hours from Bangkok on the Gulf of Siam in central Thailand. On offer at this 200-room resort, boasting 14 acres of gardens set around invigorating and calming lily pools, is its three-hour signature treatment - called Culture of Anantara.

The treatment begins with Shirodhara massage, often referred to as the massage of the third eye, considered one of the most powerful ayurvedic treatments available. This is followed by strong massage strokes on the back that release stress and unclog tensed muscles.

Finally, one immerses in the sweetness of a honey and milk bath.
